MAINTENANCE
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Before beginning maintenance
and repair
•
place the chipper onto level and hard ground and
make sure it cannot tip;
•
turn off the tractor and disconnect the PTO drive
shaft;
•
disconnect the hydraulic hoses from the tractor;
•
familiarize yourself with the machine-specific
maintenance and repair instructions.
In case of doubt, please contact the manufacturer.
•
Always lock the rotor before adjusting or changing
the knives.
•
Always wear protective gloves when handling
knives.
LUBRICATING THE BEARINGS
•
The bearings are lubricated at the factory, and a
similar lubricant should be used for subsequent
lubrication (Shell Alvania Grease R 3. or Kendall
L427). An excessive amount of grease causes over-
heating and impairs lubrication.
•
Lubricate the bearings every 200 working hours or
at least once a year. See Fig. 12..

LUBRICATING THE PTO SHAFT
•
Lubricate the PTO shaft prior to operation and
regularly, as shown in Fig. 13.
•
Lubricate the inner surface of the PTO shaft, accessed
via the outer profile tube.
•
Lubricate the shield tubes in wintertime to prevent
them from freezing and sticking.
